The Bacon King

The Bacon King When I got married a long time ago There were many things I looked for Besides the obvious, romp in the nude I couldn’t wait, to eat some good food Well sometimes it, would happen just right Sometimes I barfed, all though the night What could I do, my belly was aching ‘so I told my wife to add some bacon (Chorus) Yea, just smother it with Bacon The juicy greasy kind Burnt, Raw, undercooked I don’t really mind The favor of the pork Just covers everything They just call me The crazy Bacon King I would walk around, the pigs they would hide “cause the day before, one of their friends died “Sell the ham and sausage, money I was makin’ But you all know, I ate all the Bacon Over the years, I had to buy new clothes I can’t remember. When I saw my toes Handsome looks are gone, energy takin’ But I don’t care, just pass me some bacon (Chorus) Yea, I am the bacon king I’m not ashamed to say I eat my Bacon Happily every day I wolf it down And I lick the plate “Throw caution to the wind And accept my fate They all tell me, you are what you eat So I guess, I’m a greasy piece of meat That’s ok, and I’m here for all to see But just don’t try, to bite a piece of me I made my choices, but it don’t get me down I don’t even notice, dogs following me around I’ve written something that really makes me laugh This is what I want on my epitaph (Chorus) He was the king of Bacon Sadly but true If you were a pig He’d take a bite of you He died on a day Dark and drizzlin’ Let’s hope he’s at place That is not sizzlin’

This one had me laughing so hard I woke my wife up! Now she's ready to sizzle my bacon because it's 4: 00AM! This is an excellent lyric! I found myself coming up with a tune and singing it as I read it. I laughed my rear end off! Thank you!
